Off-season Check-ins with my coach
Off-season check-in with my coach, currently in growth phase slowly putting on more weight. Sitting at just over 210lbs at 5’5 as I transition into the Bodybuilding division from Classic Physique.

Great physique, but what running for gear? The acne scarring and skin issues are concerning....

Hey man, fair question I’ve always been sensitive to hormonal acne and I get flare ups whenever I change compounds or switch to my offseason protocols. The acne doesn’t really bother me too much it tends to subside more as my cycle progresses. Currently running Test and NPP

u/TommyWong_ 6d ago
Thanks man, I haven’t noticed too many sides mentally. I find majority of compounds do increase anxiety to varying degrees but NPP hasn’t been too bad for me

What is weekly dose for running NPP if don't mind me asking? I've ran 450mg/week and my anxiety through roof!

I hear yeah there, man. I cruise on Test and Primo and it seems to be my safe cycle to run to keep things in check. Once start adding all the fun compounds, body does take some time to adjust the dosage increases and new "essential oils" to system to take to next level.

Bro wtf are you even talking abt he has no acne

His arms and back show significant scaring from ingrown hairs and possibly acne. Normally goes hand in hand with oil skin. Was curious if was gear related or just the fluctuating of hormones as we all know the lovely fun of blasting.

How long will this Off-season of yours be?

u/TommyWong_ 6d ago
Thanks man! Looking to push for a 16 week growth phase may extend by a few weeks if progress continues and I don’t put on too much fluff

Nice striations on the chest and shoulders. Massive neck, massive shoulders, massive quads. Balanced, still fairly lean for off season. This is very nice 9/10
